Environmental Analysis

One of the greatest challenges facing humankind in the new century is the need to develop a sustainable civilization in a world with natural systems and limits under increasing strain from economic expansion and population growth. The Environmental Analysis Program (EAP) is designed to prepare students for careers in many environmental problem-solving fields, including law, policy, medicine, chemistry, conservation, global climate change, urban planning, and resource management. It also provides a solid background for careers in environmental education and community environmental action.

Claremont McKenna, Harvey Mudd, Pitzer, Pomona and Scripps Colleges participate in a five-College collaboration that allows students to take advantage of a broad range of courses, facilities, and opportunities in the study of environmental issues.
